is that like how you tone?

work on dumbell power cleans or hang cleans, that get's the dumbells into starting position and then you just lean back into the incline bench position

when I asked about doing these I was given the advice to hold the bar like I'm trying to pull it apart, and when I started doing it that way my rear delts got a nice burn too

great advise, made a big difference I didn't realize how much shoulder work that gave me. I haven't had a rear delt soreness like this.

I'm talking about Overhead Squats where you hold the bar overhead while squatting, also done at the end of a Snatch.

I just started doing this last week and it feels very awkward. My rear delts don't seem to like it much, not really painful just feels unnatural. Balance is a real issue on the squat. Any one have some accessory lifts to help or some technique tips? Or will my muscles just adapt after a few...

x1 I can just see those discs bulging with each rep

bear lifts power clean, front squat, push press, back squat, BTN push press = 1 rep with fluid movement

I'm curious about the Power Cleans, that's a lot of volume...any particular reason?

don't alternate it, do it all in the same workout do deadlifts and rows do benchpress, CG bench/incline bench, and dips you need to do more than 2 exercises in your workouts

x2

Consistency is also key in the beginning, set the routine of going to the gym when you plan. Initially, I set 2 days a week that I had to work out and I kept to it, sometimes I threw in an extra 3rd workout. Now I am consistently working out 3 days a week and will eventually move up to 4 days...

I drink a Carnation Instant Breakfast (no sugar added) about 30 minutes before my workout so I have some fuel since I workout an hour after I wake up. I make my protien concoction(sp?) afterwards consisting of some variety of skim milk, yogurt, peanut butter, egg, fruit, oats and who knows what...

Full ROM too, nice!

do yourself a favor and read it all, try to put your ego aside and really learn this stuff
